After 10 years on the brink of turmoil, the time has come for the Agency to restore peace in Pacific City, rid the streets of crime and eliminate a deadly virus threatening the population. Putting you into the thick of the action, the highly anticipated summer blockbuster, “Crackdown 2,” is set to launch on July 9th across the Middle East.
Developed by Ruffian Games and published by Microsoft Game Studios exclusively for Xbox 360, “Crackdown 2” will be available in the UAE at an estimated retail price of AED 249/- and is rated PEGI 18.
The sequel to the award winning “Crackdown,” “Crackdown 2” builds exponentially upon the sizzling, action-packed gameplay of its predecessor, including the all-new 4-player co-op and 16-player multiplayer modes. With formidable new enemies called the Cell and the Freaks standing in the way of the Agency’s goal to restore order, players return as genetically enhanced Agents in “Crackdown 2” to once again bring peace to Pacific City – by any means necessary in one of the most explosive and interactive open worlds for fans to explore and experiment with.
“Crackdown 2 is the much awaited sequel to the award winning vertical-world adventure game and is the ultimate open-ended world action experience. The game lets you be judge, jury and executioner for a huge, fully explorable city and takes multi-player gaming to unprecedented levels. It builds upon the original title in every way and we are pleased to offer our fans in the Middle East the most complete action experience on Xbox 360.” said Aman Sangar, Product Marketing Manager at Microsoft Entertainment and Devices Division Middle East.
